* For best results, avoid lengthy exposure to warm or hot water. We recommend applying Patch Peelz to clean and dry skin with no skin prep. Once applied, seal the perimeter with 3M Cavilon (or similar skin prep). If the edges begin to lift, apply 3M Cavilon with light pressure or use a hair dryer with light pressure to reseal. Avoid direct contact with lotions, powders or bath additives.
